Phra Suddhidhammaransi Gambhiramedhacarya (1907–1961), commonly known as Ajahn Lee Dhammadharo, was a meditation teacher in the Thai Forest Tradition of the Dhammayuttika Nikaya order of Theravada Buddhism. He was born in the Ubon Ratchathani Province of Isan and was a student of Mun Bhuridatta.
Ajahn Lee is regarded as one of the greatest teachers and meditation masters of the Thai Forest Tradition of the 20th century.[1][2] Among the forest monks, he devised the most comprehensive meditation instructions, and composed the most detailed map of the jhānas.[citation needed] He was one of the first teachers to bring the teachings of the Forest Tradition to the mainstream of Thai society.[3] He never spoke of his own meditative attainments; however, it was widely discussed among his students that he may have had psychic powers.[4]
